Yet More Disney + Stuff, Part V

IDK, some casual watching has given me some new weird, um, facts, I guess, to think about.

IDK, this might be a short one.

Some random stuff… I kinda thought this before but a rewatch of The Goddess of Spring has confirmed it- Elle Fanning’s Princess Aurora was based on this character, at least in looks (If not Elle Fanning herself, TBH. But we won’t go there, at least not yet).

What I didn’t expect upon a rewatch was to see Liv Rooney’s bed poster! Ah, lol. The Disney-verse. Will you ever be not surprising?

Also- upon finishing The Goddess of Spring, I noticed that it was one of Disney’s Silly Symphony line of cartoons. To let that sink in, I said the name a few times out loud- Silly Symphony, Silly Symphony. What does that sound like?

Stefanie Scott, of course! Disney Princess, Stefanie Scott- the one I mentioned on here before that they used to parade around in the middle of Disney World in a Cinderella-type Pumpkin chariot. Silly Symphony… Stefanie Scott. Silly Symphony Stefanie Scott. Silly-Scott, Symphony-Stefanie. Not only do the names share initials, they share the same number of syllables in each word, and even number of characters in the words.

To me, this is absolutely fascinating as hell, if not a little eerie. Yet another in the long long list of one-in-a-million coincidences I’ve noticed while browsing Disney+.

All other things considered I find it mindblowing in and of itself that I’ve been dating Stefanie for over a dozen years now and am still dredging up stuff in her past that throws me off balance. Holy moly, lol. Uh… Good job, Stefanie? Is that the appropriate reaction to this?

IDK.

Speaking of Steffy being paraded around DW, I think I mentioned that fact in a middle of a fentanyl induced haze a couple of years ago, which reminds me of the movie Ben is Back (feel free to search archives on that title) starring another GF, Kathryn Newton.

Uh, well, I just finished watching The Liberty Story and could not help but notice that the animated short Ben and Me in The Liberty Story seems to have some odd parallels with Ben is Back, bizarrely. The similarities are well hidden but they are there in fact are striking if you look hard enough. Kinda… wut?

Is this stuff all some weird fever dream I cooked up on allergy meds when I was a kid or something?

I saw all of these old Disney cartoons when I was a kidlet. I saw them all on Disney channel and on VHS. Did I just… imagine all of this stuff, all of these people, everything, into being? You know, during my many many childhood daydreams?

Stuff to think about, I guess.
